Everyone knows this. :thumbsup:

I wonder what happened to the SOB.

He was insensitive to someone with a dead or dying [missing (thanks, BladeVenom)] pet, if I remember correctly. Got banned for it.

Mods said they'd let him return if he publicly apologizes to the OP of that thread, but that's not in-line with his character. If he does that, he wouldn't really be theflyingpig anymore.

It was pretty insensitive and he kept on pushing it. Guess it was just the straw that broke the mod's back.


IIRC, he didn't keep pushing it, but many people in the thread kept bringing it up that he shouldn't apologize, blah blah.

I also recall that the OP was assumed to be a troll by most everyone that first read the thread, so the earliest responses were all very anti-troll in their own way, including TFP.

He was a target, though.

Moshquerade, because I generally enjoyed her posts and her sense of humor. Plus, she showed me pics of her boobies once. :wub:

Married guy with a kid, hoping to seduce the chick he wish he had instead of the one that gave him kids to deal with.


LOTUS ELISE!

LOL.


I think those that are banned should remain banned.

The whole thread though is a mod callout which isn't cool.

she was part of The Great Culling.

GA and Her were, according to mods, the biggest offenders. They also took Gaindensensei and a few others...

Many people learned how to dump the contents of a whole sub forum to their computers that day.

:thumbsdown: I never tried to seduce anyone, I never met Mosh or talked to her in person, never had any sexual conversations either (at least nothing more than occasional harmless flirting). Nice try though.

TFP was a folk hero. In the sense that ATOT loves a delightful psychopath with a cruel sense of humour and seething hatred of fat people. :)

I enjoyed TFP, but at this point if he were unbanned he could never live up to his legend, no one could.

What did she get banned for?

Talking with someone through Private Messages who said he "could" download the entire mod forum with an app, when the admins accidentally left the the mod forums open to everyone.
